50 Forgotten Macedonian Folk Songs
A collection of 50 old Macedonian folk songs with newly composed melodies. The songs' lyrics primarily come from Dimitar and Konstantin Miladinov, two brothers who traveled Macedonia in the mid-19th century to collect and jot down these songs. However, the brothers did not notate the melodies that accompany these lyrics. Sinadinoski created new melodies in the Macedonian folk style and spirit to ensure the lyrics' survival in the collective folk memory of the Macedonian people, and they are a wonderful and enjoyable addition to any folk enthusiast's repertoire. The collection contains melodies in the treble clef, chords, Macedonian lyrics, and English translations.
